The Previous Question.

John c. Calhoun. then a senator stated
in debate in 1871 that the "prcvious
question" YVES introduced in The house ia
1911. Its establishment was rendered
necessary by the long winded speeches Of
Barent Gardner, representative from
New York, Who would speak two OF three
days upon some uninp0rtsnt resolution,
when action was promptly demanded
Henry Clay differed from Mr.. Calhoun III
his recollection. He said that before the
previous question was introduced they
had rule in observance in the house
which acted as great auxiliary in cutting
of debate, and this was question of
consideration, viz. Will the house now
consider" He re,olected the application
of that rule in particular case of inter-
est. Mr. Randolph, who understood that
q message would be sent from the press
dent declaring war against Great Britain
came 10 the house in the morning and
commenced his famous anti war speech
ami after be had spoken some time he
fNI. Clay being in the chair asked him
on what proposition he based his re-
marks Mr.. Randolph replied upon a
resolution he was about TO offer to this
effect; "Rtsoired, That it was iuexpedi
EFT TO go 10 war with Great Britain %
Mr.. Clay asked him 70 be good enough to
reduce il TO writing. which be DID, and
sent it to the chair The question was
then put: Will the house now consider
the resolution and decided in the nega>
tive, which cut off the speech, and Mr.
Randolph denouncedit as gag law"

WASHINGTON CITY, March THE local
papsrs give elaborate descriptions Of the in
vention by Mr.. Sid H. Nealy, young jour
nalist of Washington, of ''sea-devil, OF
submarine torpedo, capable of carrying a
charge of nearly 1000 pounds of dynamite
1t is to be sent after an enemy's ship from
either shore or shipboard, and its inventor
asserts that no ship, however fast, can run
away from it, even in a stern chase.
The body of the torpedo, carrying the
charge, revolves with tremendous rapidity,
the shaft in the rear being held motionless,
first by float to which the torpedo is at
tached, and afterwards by four fiat blades
that stick out from the shaft like so many
wings of q churn paddle. Reaching the
guards Of ship, the torpedo ducks its head,
dives fourteen feet into the water, raises its
head and darts against the ships hull. 1t is
steered until it reaches the ship by electric
wires, but the most accurate shots can be
made with it a distance of three quarters Of
mile Mr.. Nealy will soon give an exhibi.

THE Philadelphia Times says 1t is true

THE Philadelphia Times says: 1t is true
that there is republican party, demo
cratic party. a mugwump, party, pro
hibitiou party, an anti saloon party, a
greenback party, Henry George party
and Ben Butler party. But there is still
a choice assortment of political odds and
ends who do not feel at home in any of
these parties. They tsye been in session
in Cincinnati trying to construct a party
which all can Join who can't be suited
elsewhere, and platform broad enough
for the universe to stand on. The chair
man was capitalist worth half u million
and the delegates comprised the antipodes
of humanity, from the anarchist tramp,
who wanted everybody else to share with
him, to the ,womsn who was sure that
equal suffrage would usher in the millen>

who composed the convention, the plat
form of principles adopted by it is unri>

could befall the government than the retire

GAVE CLiNCH A CLINCHER.
A Leeherous Chicayoan Killed by a Brave
Woman.

CHICAGO, March Miles J. Clinch, gro
Ger, was shot and fatally wounded at II
o'clock Saturday morning by Mrs Maggie
Shay, at the lattor's residence, 122 Barber

force an entrance. Mrs. Shay fired two
shots through the door from revolver, one
of them striking Clinch under the right eye
Cliuch was taken to his home, SIT Union
street, where it was found that the bullet had
taken an upward direction and lodged in his
brain. There was no quarrel between the

Clinch's part for the company of Shay's wife
to account for the affair. Mrs. Shay is the
wife of Fireman ii. J, Shay, of Fire Insur-
ance Patrol No l, and her husband is there
fore away from home greater part Of the
